Rowdy has been just horrible in July……unfortunately he has lots of company

He’s been HR or nothing for about a month, and for the last few weeks it’s been nothing.

That play is not reviewable.

I know it's not. But he would've argued the call and gotten them to change it. 

[Ron Robinsons Beard]

Two gut punch losses in a row. Gross.

[treego14]

Taking a called 3rd strike there, Wong?  Are you serious?

[YelichPosse]

strike out looking. this is gross.

[DuWayne Steurer]

Sitting slider and that was predictable.

[Pugger]

We got royally screwed.  

[Simba2020]

Wong swings like it's his last swing of his life for strike one and then takes a called third strike. Fantastic AB.

[mtsportsfan]

What the hell , protect the plate , go down looking ! Just keep swinging for the fences !

[treego14]

Bad offense

Bad managing

Bad umping on the balk call

Bad taste in Brewers Nation's mouth!

I need mouthwash!!!

[BruisedCrew]

Another dreary defeat in what’s becoming a long line of them. 
 

Webb vs Alexander isn’t the matchup you want to try to right the ship. 

[brewers888]

They can release Wong at this point. I've completely seen enough of this guy.

[markedman5]

Another winnable game lost…….Wong might need to be the next DFA

Alexander against Webb tomorrow…….and then a welcome break for all of us from this daily torture.

He always looks fancy in his uniform ... otherwise, he's been smelly this season.

Get them to change it?  Seriously?  I'm afraid that ain't gonna happen.

If I were Counsell I'd probably lose my job over a very profane post game meltdown

He better look in the mirror first for his listlessness in the 8th inning.

[BruisedCrew]

The Brewers have scored one run in this series that wasn’t aided by Giants mistakes or a free runner on 2B.

Personally I think he's upset that Hiura was sent down.

Still wouldn’t shock me if this team goes into a long losing streak and finishes below or around .500. They’re just not very good. The Cardinals are going to win the division 

[Austin Tatious]

Looks like Counsell took his stupid pills again today.  Batting Wong fifth is something else.  

Batting orders matter and today’s loss shows that.  Wong should bat 8th or 9th every time he plays. Then maybe he can get on base for the top of the order.  

Placing him in a run producing spot is anti-common sense.

Wong should be released at the all star break.

Take a look at the Cardinal's pitching and tell me that they're going to win the division without making a few trades.
